Abstract: A water top-up plug for batteries containing a liquid electrolyte has a plug housing, which is formed outwardly in the lower region so that it is complementary to an upper battery housing opening. A cover is arranged at the plug housing at the top, beneath which there is located a water chamber which has a water supply opening which can be closed by a valve and at least one flow connection to that region of the plug housing which, after the insertion into a battery housing opening, communicates with the inner space of the battery. Moreover, at least one tube stub is provided, onto which a water supply hose can be mounted and which stands in flow communication with the water inlet. At the bottom, a float projects out of the plug housing and is connected with the valve body via a float rod and a cross-piece provided at its upper end. The valve seat and the water supply opening are integrated into the plug housing.

Title: Universal mould carrier with improved air flow compensation
Inventor: NITSCHE REINHOLD ERNST
IPC: B29C49/56
Filed: 1998-05-29
Granted: 2007-07-24
Abstract: A universal mold carrier for use in a mold assembly compensates for parting forces associated with container formation by directing a compensating air flow pressure to the rear surface of the mold carrier. The mold carrier comprises two mold halves adapted to matingly engage each other and hold within the mold carriers interchangeable mold shells. One of the mold carriers has an outside wall that has a plurality of independent air flow compensating surface areas located thereon. This mold carrier further has an air flow communication line interconnecting the independent air flow compensating surface areas. Shut off valves are located in the one carrier to close and to open the air flow communication line between adjacent independent air flow compensating surface areas to allow for adjustment of the compensating pressure. The shut off valves each include a valve stem adapted to open and close the valve thereby connecting or disconnecting the independent air flow compensating surface areas located on opposite sides of the valve. The valve stem is positioned in the carrier along its parting wall which is accessible to an operator when the mold halves are open. The mold half carrier permits an operator to open or close off supply of compensating pressure applied to different compensating systems during a quick change over of the mold shells carried by the mold half carriers.

Abstract: A hydraulic steering assembly applies a force to a tiller arm of a marine, outboard propulsion unit and rotates the propulsion unit about a steering axis between a center position and hard over positions to each side of the center position. The propulsion unit is supported for arcuate movement about a tilt axis which is generally perpendicular to the steering axis. The steering assembly includes a hydraulic steering cylinder with an elongated piston rod reciprocatingly mounted within the cylinder for movement along a piston rod axis. A pair of support arms are pivotable about the tilt axis and are connected to the piston rod, allowing arcuate movement of the rod about the tilt axis, while maintaining the rod axis parallel to the tilt axis. A member is pivotally mounted on the tiller arm for pivoting about a first axis which is parallel to the steering axis. The cylinder arm is connected to the cylinder and extends radially outwards from the piston rod axis. The cylinder arm is pivotally connected to the member for pivoting about the second link axis which is parallel to the piston rod axis. The cylinder arm moves through a partially rotated position when the propulsion unit rotates from the center position to either hard over position. The second link axis and the rod axes are on a plane parallel to the steering axis at the partially rotated position.

Abstract: In a method for manufacturing a sidewall member of a continuous casting mold from a copper blank, wherein the sidewall member has an upper and a lower edge and a curved widened area beginning at the upper edge and tapering in a direction to the lower edge and to the sides of the sidewall member, the copper blank is hot-forged via several intermediate shapes to a rectangular plate with an initial wedge shape. The rectangular plate is then further formed by final hot-forging in a longitudinal direction of the rectangular plate with a straight saddle, having a width that is only a portion of a width of the rectangular plate measured relative to the longitudinal direction of the rectangular plate, and the curved widened area is preforged. Subsequently, the rectangular plate is quenched and work-hardened. The rectangular plate is then cold-hammered via a wedge-shaped bottom saddle for work-hardening a middle portion of the rectangular plate and for producing a final wedge shape of the rectangular plate. Finally, the entire curved widened area is work-hardened with a narrow saddle.

Title: Expansion joint
Inventor: BETTS KENNETH H
IPC: E01D19/06
Filed: 2000-11-06
Granted: 2008-09-16
Abstract: An expansion joint for a parking structure includes first and second rails for mounting on adjacent slabs at opposite sides of a gap therebetween and a cover plate that overlies the rails and covers the gap while permitting relative movement between the slabs. A series of turnbars are pivotally coupled to the underside of the cover plate using ball and socket joints so that lateral loads imposed on the cover plate are transmitted directly into the turnbars, minimizing the risk of shear failure between the cover plate and the turnbars. At the same time, the ball and socket joints allow the cover plate and turnbars to tip with respect to one another. The turnbars have spherical end portions that are received in complimentary channels in the respective rails so that the turnbars maintain the cover plate centered over the gap.

Abstract: Conjugates containing as a ligand a chemokine receptor targeting agents, such as chemokines, and a targeted agent, such as a toxin are provided. These conjugates are used to treat inflammatory responses associated with activation, proliferation and migration of immune effector cells, including leukocyte cell types, neutrophiles, macrophages, and eosinophils. The conjugates provided herein are used to lessen or inhibit these processes to prevent or at least lessen the resulting secondary effects. In particular, the conjugates are used to target toxins to receptors on secondary tissue damage-promoting cells. The ligand moiety can be selected to deliver the cell toxin to such secondary tissue damage-promoting cells as mononuclear phagocytes, leukocytes, natural killer cells, dendritic cells, and T and B lymphocytes, thereby suppressing the proliferation, migration, or physiological activity of such cells. Among preferred conjugates are fusion proteins having a chemokine, or a biologically active fragment thereof, as the ligand moiety linked to a cell toxin via a peptide linker of from 2 to about 60 amino acid residues.
